Zusammenfassung: The Fabens method is commonly used to estimate growth parameters k and l in the von Bertalanffy model from tag-recapture data. However, the Fabens method of estimation has an inherent bias when individual growht is variable. This paper present an asymptotocally unbiasses method using the maximum-likelihood approach that takes account of individual varibility in both maimum lenth and age-at-tagging. ...
